I heard that male pattern baldness is caused by too much testosterone(male hormone). Also I heard that gays don't have enough testosterone but have more of estrogen(female hormone) which makes them get their sexual preference. Does it mean that bald headed gays don't exist? If I am right, does it mean if a bald headed male inject himself with some estrogen hormone, then he'll grow more hair and get rid of his baldness?

Yes they do exist, I am one of them. Sexuality has nothing to do with horomone levels, and injecting yourself with estrogen only makes men grow breasts. It is very common for transexuals to take female horomones.

Male pattern baldness is not caused by excess testosterone, it will occur in normal male levels. The scalp follicles of some people respond to testosterone that way. The loss of folicular function can not be reversed by hormone therapy.
There has been much research into homosexuality. There are no conclusive findings yet, but the idea that homosexual men produce insufficient testosterone has already been disproven. Homosexual men have the same average hormone levels as heterosexuals. There are many bald homosexuals.
There is an interesting theory with some evidence behind it that one common form of homosexuality may be caused by a mother developing an allergy to testosterone during pregnancy, and producing antigens for it. This may affect the fetus during higher CNS development. More studies are needed.

I have read that baldness has been linked with low levels of testosterone and being gay has nothing to do with hormone levels

I don't think so. My uncle is both bald AND gay. I think male pattern baldness is more of a genetic thing than a sexual preference thing.

No, the estrogen won't help his baldness, he might get a nice set of breasts though.

not only does testoterone not have anything to do with bladness, they have even less to do with homosexuality. your skewed logic is based of skewed facts!
